Click on the video to see a pizza get made in less than 60 seconds.
It's official, Sarpino's opened in downtown Northbrook. The new delivery and carry-out service operates out of the former Northbrook Garage, at 1384 Meadow Rd.

"We met a lot of obstacles so it was delayed," Akulich said, though he declined to specify what kept the store from opening sooner.
